Materials - 1
ABS (Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene)
Automotive (instrument and interior trim panels, glove compartment doors, wheel covers, mirror housings, etc.), refrigerators, small appliance housings and power tools applications (hair dryers, blenders, food processors, lawnmowers, etc.), telephone housings, typewriter housings, typewriter keys, and recreational vehicles such as golf carts and jet skis.
PA12 (Polyamide 12 or Nylon 12)
Gear wheels for water meters and business machines, cable ties, cams, slides, and bearings.
PA6 (Polyamide 6, or Nylon 6, or Polycaprolactam)
Used in many structural applications because of its good mechanical strength and rigidity. It is used in bearings because of its good wear resistance.
PA66 (Polyamide 66, or Nylon 66, or poly (hexamethylene adipamide)
Competes with PA 6 for most applications. PA 66 is heavily used in the automotive industry, appliance housings, and generally where impact resistance and strength are required.
PBT (Polybutylene Terephthalates)
Household appliances (food processor blades, vacuum cleaner parts, fans, hair dryer housings, coffee makers, etc.), electronics (switches, motor housings, fuse cases, key caps for computer keyboards, connectors, fiber optic buffer tubing, etc.), automotive (grilles, body panels, wheel covers, and components for doors and windows, etc.)
PC (Polycarbonate)
Electronic and business equipment (computer parts, connectors, etc.), appliances (food processors, refrigerator drawers, etc.), transportation (head lights, tail lights, instrument panels, etc.).
PC|ABS (Polycarbonate-Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene Blend)
Computer and business machine housings, electrical applications, cellular phones, lawn and garden equipment, automotive components (instrument panels, interior trim, and wheel covers)
